So far i got is 18 settlers but the meter said I got more BEDS but didn't add anything. Is this a glitch?20201121090528_1.jpg
 
Ok, bringing this back up as I'm having an issue even thought I refreshed every plot I have. I'm using Abernathy as my example. I have 21 settlers (1 more than I want), but I can't stop them from coming as I had 28 beds. I made sure there were no beds outside of the 3 you can't scrap and the 17 plots. After refreshing all my plots, I now have 40 beds!! Is there something I can do like in SS1 where I can refresh the entire settlement? Or something else I can do to reduce the number of beds so settlers stop coming.

Just FYI, I don't have a beacon, I have a lvl3 communications plot, which if I understand correctly, will keep bringing settlers until all beds are full. Also, this is happening in all my settlements.

If you are using Place Everywhere use the Insert key to toggle extra objects and you can scrap them. Remember to toggle it back off because it can grab a lot of extra objects, including your workbench, and if the workbench gets deleted it aint good (can immediately CT with scrapall command.)
You want to scrap them because they are considered unsheltered beds.

You refreshed them all too quickly and buried yourself in script lag. Give it some time after a refresh and the bed count will go back down. Every time you try refreshing the plot it adds more beds until the scripting catches up.

Hmm, so that is a drawback with the communications plot. Residential plots not refreshing properly will make that an issue. You could always move extra settlers to another settlement.

Oh wow yikes!!!! that's a full load!!
 
You must refresh every Plot 1 by 1.There is no option same as SS1 to Refresh all.The problem is that a Refresh take age in SS2 from what you see in front of you seams fast but to finish the real clean it can take 1-2 Days ingame.Refresh 5 Plots at the time or more if you have a good PC but slow and then go in some place where is nothing and look at the Ground away from the Settlement that helps and go drink some Coffee or make a round with your Dog :) after 1 Day open the Workshop without moving and look how much Bed you have now if you have still to many wait longer until all Beds are again at the right number.As i write it can take up to 2 Ingame days to end.
 
Thanks for that info, I will try it. However I was just so confused by what was happening, I took a head count. 21 people, 35 total beds (i counted there are 35), and yet I have settlers who do not have a house. When taking a head count I noticed most of the SS2 settlers were assigned to 2 or 3 beds, preventing the others from being assigned. I know to fix that I will have to scrap all of the houses, but I found it concerning it was only the SS2 settlers doing that. The biggest offenders were the Powells and Franklin. Each had 3 beds assigned.
 
my problem is that in the settlement i have the corect number of beds but in the overview in my pip boy it shows something like 4236 instead of the corect 30+ in most sttlements !

I have found that when new people join a settlement by any method, they get automatically given a place in a multi-occupant home/job/training regardless of your auto assign setting - it may even be ignoring if there is even space there, pretty sure a "track occupants" on a Training plot gave me like 5 markers, will check when I get home from work. But it "doesnt count" somehow so they can also take a "proper" place too.
